Stereochemistry of nucleophilic attack on π-allylpalladium complexes. Evidence for cis-migration of acetate from palladium to carbon
Abstract
Formation of 4-methoxycyclohex-2-enyl acetate (3) from the π-allylpalladium complex (2) shows that the acetate has attacked the π-allyl ligand from the same side as the metal (cis-addition).
